Thank you, Optimist! And best of luck to him, both in the matches and in terms of making the longer-term decisions.

Jaggy1876 · Grand Slam Champion

I'm assuming therefore Cams target in these 5 challengers is acquiring enough points to make the cut for Aus Open qualies. Given he'd only need probably a maximum of 60 net points you've got to think he ll do it. He does after all have connections down under and usually goes there over new year anyway doesn't he?

Tables updated.
Fran and Dommie are the main withdrawals.
Struggling to find qualifying draws fro WTA events

I was looking for something, so made a note of these updates to Women's ITF at the same time

France - Carreras is currently No 1 in qualifying
Israel - Deigman is LWM today
Italy - Amelia Stuart has snuck into qualifying
Portugal - Barnett is currently no 2 in qualifying
Spain - Kight is LWQ today

Strongbow · All-time great

Mandy now into MD. smile

Understandably weak entry in the British Tour Tier 1 event this week - on the women's list only Beth Grey and Lucy Brown are ranked. I don't know enough about the men at this level, but not many names are familiar to me on their entry list.

Helen40 · Grand Slam Champion

I see Wardy and Wilbomb are out of Turkey, and there's no mention of Coxey.

Has anyone got any more information/explainations?

Helen40 · Grand Slam Champion

I found Coxey, he's in the US in qualies.

It seems from Twitter that Willbomb was in Liverpool yesterday - and plans to be at the Hull game on 24th

Be good to see Marcus playing a ranking tournament or two sometime.

I can't help but feel that Wimbledon 2016 will just be a great memory rather than the springboard to something more substantial.

Certainly that to me would be a great pity, but I do share that feeling. Great talent, indeed a joy in some ways, but consistent desire and application - not sure about them.

Agreed. There might be one honeymoon still on the horizon but the Wimbledon one is most definitely over and the time has come to get back on the pro circuit if he wants to build on it. To win front of half a dozen (if that) unknown spectators in a foreign country rather than a crowd of your mates who are cheering you on at Wimbledon will be the acid test. I had rather hoped that impending fatherhood might be a motivating factor to go out there and earn the money now, but it seems a bit worrying that there's still no sign of him planning to return to competitive action.
